In a medium-sized saucepan, combine the coconut milk and almond milk. Whisk gently to ensure they are well mixed.
Over medium heat, gradually add the sugar and a pinch of salt, whisking continuously until the sugar dissolves completely.
In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch with a few tablespoons of the milk mixture to create a smooth slurry.
Slowly pour the cornstarch slurry back into the saucepan while constantly whisking to prevent any lumps.
Continue to heat the mixture while stirring consistently. It will gradually thicken as it comes to a gentle boil.
Once the mixture reaches a boil, reduce the heat to low and simmer for 3 to 5 minutes, stirring often, until the pudding thickens to your desired consistency.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
Pour the pudding into individual serving dishes or ramekins.
Allow the pudding to cool at room temperature for about 10 minutes, then cover each dish with plastic wrap to prevent a skin from forming.
Refrigerate the pudding for at least 1 hour or until thoroughly chilled.
Enjoy your creamy, dairy-free milk pudding garnished with fresh fruit or a sprinkle of cinnamon, if desired.
